Vauxhall Nova these days, surely? The boy racer Escorts of old
are all becoming collectors items now.


I don't seem to see many Vauxhall Novas around here at all. I suppose
it's true that Ford Escorts aren't all the common as boy racer cars
these days. Fiestas, Corsas, Golfs, they seem to be the big things now.
You do still get a few Escorts, but they're not the proper ones
intended for the purpose. They're the ones where they fit massive alloy
wheels which reveal the tiny brakes, put a sticker in the back window
and replaced the rear lights with ones that are meant to look better
but just look rubbish.
